Livingston County currently provides eligible Non Union and MAPE Court employees with a MERS retirement health care savings account. The County makes a quarterly contribution to the employee's accounts based on length of service. This contribution is intended to be used by the employee to pay for health care expenses in retirement.
Full-time, Non Union employees hired prior to March 17, 2003 who are eligible to receive a MERS pension benefit from Livingston County and opted out of receiving retiree health care in retirement.
Eligible employees covered by the MAPE Court bargaining agreement. Please see your union contract for more information.
Please complete the MERS Health Care Savings Plan Enrollment and Beneficiary Form (found below).
Once your enrollment form is received, MERS will create an individual account for each employee in the MERS Retiree Health Savings Program. You will be mailed a welcome kit with information on how to select your funds through the MERS online system. Although you cannot select your funds until after you are enrolled in the program, we have provided information on the investments below.
For more information on this benefit, please review the MERS Health Care Savings Plan presentation below.
